Chalkys: vinyl, CDs and films from a Banbury music shop

Shopping at Chalkys? See all current Chalkys discount codes and deals, checked regularly.

Chalkys began as a record shop in Banbury in 1987, set up by a former Music Market employee who put his nickname over the door. Nearly four decades on it trades online from a warehouse at Compton Park in Banbury, still with a small UK customer service team you can phone on weekdays. It suits anyone who still buys music and films on physical formats: vinyl collectors, CD buyers building a collection on a budget, and film fans after DVDs, Blu-rays and 4K discs.

The range covers new releases and back catalogue across most genres, from rock, pop and indie to jazz, classical, K-pop and soundtracks, plus pre-orders, limited and coloured vinyl, box sets and band merch. Delivery is free on every UK order, with no minimum spend, which makes it easy to buy a single CD without paying postage on top.

How to save more

• Look in the 2 for £20, £22 and £24 CD collections before buying single CDs: two albums at £10 to £12 each is less than most single new CDs on the site.
• Pre-order big releases to get them on release day; each listing shows the release date.
• Keep anything you might send back sealed. Unwanted items can go back within 90 days of the order date, but only if the shrink-wrap is still on, and you pay the return postage.
